Political prisoners Nariman Dzhelyalov, Asan and Aziz Akhtemov were forcibly removed from Crimea. Leviza Dzhelalova reports this on her Facebook page.
“Today Nariman, Asan and Aziz were forcibly taken out of Crimea and taken to prison. I can’t even imagine how difficult it is for Nariman to leave Crimea, because his love for the Motherland is inexhaustible, despite the threats, he is one of those who stayed and fought for the right to live freely and honestly in Crimea”,- she says in the post.
According to her, over the past few weeks, the administration and staff of the pre-trial detention center have prevented political prisoners from communicating with their relatives, to which they had the right.
“But the reality, unfortunately, is different, where human values such as truth, honesty, the desire to live in peace and freedom have lost their meaning. It is much easier, having only power and strength, to falsely and vilely accuse innocent people of stupid and absurd acts, while knowing about it. To my surprise, I saw over these two years how low and vile a person can be in the faces of the people who fabricated this case”,- she adds.
Despite the difficult circumstances, Leviza expresses confidence that the Crimean Tatars will pass all tests, because: “It cannot be any other way. After all, the truth is behind us!”
She also adds that at the last meeting with the lawyer, Nariman asked to convey sincere words of gratitude to all those who have helped, supported and are supporting him, the boys and their families all this time.
We remind you that on September 21, 2022, in the Supreme Court of Crimea Nariman Dzhelyalov was found guilty of committing a crime under paragraphs a, b of Part 2 of Art. 281 (committing sabotage by an organized group, resulting in significant property damage), Part 4 of Art. 222.1 (illegal acquisition, storage and transportation of explosive devices committed by an organized group), Part 4 of Art. 222.1 (illegal acquisition, storage and transportation of explosive devices committed by an organized group), Part 3 of Art. 226.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (illegal transportation of an explosive device across the customs border of the Customs Union within the EurAsEC, committed by an organized group) and imposed a sentence of imprisonment for a term of 17 years, a fine of 700 thousand rubles and restriction of freedom for 1.5 years.
Asan Akhtemov was found guilty of committing a crime under paragraphs a, b of Part 2 of Art. 281 (committing sabotage by an organized group, resulting in significant property damage), Part 4 of Art. 222.1 (illegal acquisition, storage and transportation of explosive devices committed by an organized group), Part 3 of Art. 226.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (illegal transportation of an explosive device across the customs border of the Customs Union within the EurAsEC, committed by an organized group) and imposed a sentence of imprisonment for a term of 15 years, a fine of 500 thousand rubles and restriction of freedom for a period of 1 year.
Aziz Akhtemov was found guilty of committing a crime under paragraphs a, b of Part 2 of Art. 281 (committing sabotage by an organized group, resulting in significant property damage), Part 4 of Art. 222.1 (illegal acquisition, storage and transportation of explosive devices committed by an organized group), Part 3 of Art. 226.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (illegal transportation of an explosive device across the customs border of the Customs Union within the EurAsEC, committed by an organized group) and imposed a sentence of imprisonment for a term of 13 years, a fine of 500 thousand rubles and restriction of freedom for a period of 1 year.
The prosecution in this case is based on the testimony of Asan and Aziz Akhtemov, which was obtained by FSB officers as a result of torture. The activists are accused of committing sabotage on a gas pipeline in the village of Perevalne on August 23, 2021. In fact, the real reason for the persecution is the participation of Nariman Dzhelyalov in the founding Summit of the Crimean Platform on August 23, 2021.
